Maison emblématique de la Bourgogne, Louis Jadot signe un musigny grand cru qui gagnera à vieillir quelques années en cave. More info
In the heart of the Chambolle-Musigny appellation and above Clos Vougeot, Musigny is one of the emblematic crus of the Côte de Nuits vineyard. This red wine has a purity and a deep ruby colour. It is characterised by a fine and floral nose with aromas of violets and ripe black berries, turning into delicately peppery and chocolate notes. After considerable aging, the aromas become more complex: shades of fallen leaves, compost, moss associated with the animal notes of leather or fur, sometimes meat. On the palate, the body is very distinguished with fruity smoked, toasted and finely spiced flavours. The tannins are fine, ripe and silky. The sensations on the palate are unrivalled with finesse and harmony.
Musigny Grand Cru Louis Jadot serve at a temperature of 16°C. It will pair perfectly with the following dishes: Bécasse, Lièvre à la Royale, Viandes rouges.

Louis Henry Denis Jadot created his own house in 1859 at a time when winemaking was flourishing in Burgundy and the region was creating its structure. Quickly, he developed a bustling trade business with northern European countries, especially because his family was originally from Belgium. His son Louis-Jean-Baptiste followed him and developed the vineyard, while his grandson Louis-Auguste favoured exporting the wine to English-speaking countries after the war. In 1954, André Gagey joined the flourishing family business and took over the reins in 1962 following the premature death of Louis-Auguste. In 1970 - a significant date for the house - Jacques Lardière, a young œnologist, joined the team and gave the house the burst of energy it needed.
In 1985, Madame Jadot decided to ensure the company's financial future and sell it to the Rudy Kopf family, the long-time, US importer of the company's wines. Today, Thomas Seiter manages the famous house, located in the heart of Beaune. Along with Château des Jacques in Moulin-à-Vent and Domaine Ferret in Pouilly-Fuissé, Maison Louis Jadot has several other vineyards to its name, coving some 154 hectares of vines in Côte d’Or, the Mâconnais and Beaujolais. We can count 70 hectares in Côte d’Or which are essentially all grand and premier cru plots shared between Domaine Louis Jadot, Domaine Gagey, Domaine des Héritiers Louis Jadot and Domaine du Duc de Magenta.
